The artist formerly known as Darkman X is reportedly going back to jail. Only three weeks ago the rapper born Earl Simmons, was released from an Arizona and now he’s apparently in a Los Angeles lockup.

No sooner than he could order his favorite from Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles, X was apprehended by LAPD for violating probation on a reckless driving charge stemming from 2002.

Although he recently finished up the four month AZ sentence and seemed poised to deliver a long awaited album, X is said to be focused on dealing with his past legal issues in an effort to move on with his life.

Lil Kim recently brought DMX out during a performance in Arizona so he could rock the crowd and he was spotted recording new material.

Barring some unforeseen divine intervention, DMX will serve 90 days in a local jail for this most recent probation violation.

XXL reports DMX was released today (July 6)  from an Arizona jail.

The Yonkers rapper, whose real name is Earl Simmons, was serving a six month sentence that stemmed from multiple probation infractions.

Simmons was reportedly released for good behavior, which must have been music to his handlers ears, considering he once threw a food tray at an officer while in lockup.

X began this sentence on March 9, 2010 and was hopeful to land a spot on Dr. Drew’s reality show, “Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew,” but was denied by a judge.

None of us have actually had the time to sit down for a whole 45 minutes to watch this entire episode, but you can bet your bottom crackrock it’s explosive!

In the first minute or two you come to learn about X’s downfall, which we all know good and well by now.

You see the fury that got him to the point where he’s recognized as one of rap music’s finest and the narcotic that toppled him to his knees, begging for mercy and redemption.

If you get to it before we do, leave a comment and let us know how much VH1 was able to uncover.

EPISODE INSIDE

Embattled rapper DMX was recently arrested on charges of violating parole and sentenced yesterday in an Arizona courtroom to six months in jail.

Under the judge’s orders X would be obligated to serve his time in a Phoenix jail. The Yonkers born emcee admitted to violating five  terms of his probation, one of which led to dirty drug test results.

Surprisingly, he may not have to serve any time at all. Dr. Drew Pinksy of “Celebrity Rehab,” wrote a letter on Simmons behalf, asking the court to allow him to serve time in his Pasadena based facility instead of doing the time behind bars.

If it seems like just the other month DMX was released from an Arizona jail and he vowed to turn over a new leaf, it was. His attempts at turning his life over to God may still be intact and he may have had every intention of never returning to AZ.

However, the demons of his past won’t let go.

X was arrested yesterday on charges of having used illegal drugs in the past nine months, a violation of his parole and according to TMZ, was taken into custody.

“He’s been battling addiction for some time and he’s in need of treatment,” says X’s lawyer, Gary Jenkins.
